Reverb’s Instagram account posted this Pizza Hut Guitar earlier today, and it appears that YouTube’s Samurai Guitarist has purchased this promotional item!
Pizza Hut Guitar
As far as I understand, these Pizza Hut Guitars were promotional items for the fast-food franchise. They occasionally turn up on auction sites like Reverb.com. You can check this one out here, for example.
12″ Deep Pan Pepperoni
This particular 12″ Deep Pan Pepperoni ‘tone machine’ just popped up on Reverb, which subsequently shared it on its Instagram account.
What makes it possibly interesting is that YouTuber Samurai Guitarist then left a message saying he’d just bought it!
Did it set him back a lot of dough?
How much dough did it cost him? $350, and he didn’t even get a free pizza or garlic bread with it. Normally, it’s buy one, get one free on pizza…
It is one of three created by the fast-food chain, so it could be considered ‘rare’ if you are into pizza-shaped guitars. They have popped up online before, so maybe there are more than three out here? I don’t know. I’m not an expert on Pizza Hut guitars, and I don’t know anybody who is.
This deep pan has two black split-pole humbucking pickups, a string retainer bar, and a black TOM-style bridge. It also has a satin-finished maple neck and a rosewood fingerboard with 22 medium steel frets.
